There is a write-up of the Kasparov-World Game, and of the KQQKQQ computations
done by EN and Christoph Wirth in:

   the International Computer Chess Assoc. Journal, v22.4 (December '99)

The work done by Peter Karrer on KQQKQP~ and KQPKQP~ in connection with that
game may well be published shortly.

Peter showed that if promotions are P=Q-only, after moves 55. Qxb4, 58...Qe4 and
60...Kc1, Kasparov had mates in 82, 40 and 30 on moves 137, 98 and 90 in the
game.  He played the last moves optimally whereas the 'World Team' made three
sub-optimal moves.
